Build a pronunciation dictionary
Fix words that often sound wrong in generated speech: names, acronyms, brands and technical terms.
The pronunciation dictionary fixes words that often sound wrong in generated speech: company names, people names, product names, acronyms, medication names, cities and technical terms. Add the written word on the left and the pronunciation Connect should say on the right.
Start a new pronunciation dictionary from this screen.
Name the dictionary and review existing entries.
Add the written word and the pronunciation Connect should use.
| What to add | Example | Why it helps |
